[PAST EVENT] 2015 Student Literary Awards Contest: submissions open through March 22
March 2, 2015 - March 22, 2015
The 2015 William & Mary Student Literary Contest is open! All currently enrolled students are eligible to enter. The winner in each category receives $200. Second place receives $100 and third receives $50.
? Submit your entries via http://wmwritingcontest.submittable.com/submit
? The submission period is open until Sunday, March 22 at 11:59pm sharp.
? You may submit one entry in each category: fiction, single poem, group of poems (a group of poems consists of 4-6 poems), creative nonfiction, and playwriting/screenwriting.
? Your name should NOT appear anywhere on your manuscript--judging is completely anonymous. (Our online submissions manager connects names to manuscripts when we reach a final verdict.)

This year, they are the multitalented Terese Svoboda (playwriting/screenwriting), novelist Julia Fierro (fiction), Tin House editor Cheston Knapp (nonfiction), Whiting Award winner Shane McCrae (poetry), and former Virginia poet laureate Sofia Starnes (poetry.)
Winners and finalists are announced, and all entrants cheered, at our awards ceremony / end-of-year writing celebration on April 6 at 5:00 pm in Tucker Theater.
